April 19, 1955 - March 17, 2018
Thomas Edmund Cody, 62, was born on April 19, 1955 in San Antonio to Edmund and Carlta Cody. He received his B.B.A. from Texas A&I University and, at age 40, his Master's Degree in Education.

By fate, he met his bride, Sally Shackelford, and they married on March 19, 1983. Together, they raised two children, Travis and Casey. Beyond his immediate family, Tom impacted hundreds of children as a teacher in NISD and Vice Principal in Harlandale ISD. Tom enjoyed being outdoors, fishing, hunting, gardening, raising chickens, and could build anything. Forever pursuing his interests, Tom wrote books, built a canoe, leather-crafted and tied flies. Tom was truly a self-taught renaissance man. Listening to the Hillbilly Hit Parade radio show with Travis, loudly cheering for Casey at volleyball games, and watching the Aggies and Spurs with Ed are cherished memories. Tom's creativity, humor, and his tender heart continue to shine through his wife Sally Cody, his children Travis Cody (Nicole), Casey Cody Flournoy (Nick), his grandchildren, and his siblings Carl Cody (Cathi) and Lynne Cody Rector (Jim).
